RECONCILIATION
THE SACRAMENT OF
The Sacrament of Reconciliation is the primary way that God has arranged for people to be reconciled with him for their sins committed after their Baptism. Sin harms our relationship with God and with others. Because the healing of any relationship begins with a recognition that one has done something wrong, it is important to regularly consider “what I have done or failed to do” - to examine your consciences.
